Step into a world where history meets modernity with our exclusive beach towel featuring the dynamic background of Kehinde Wiley's Portrait of Issa Diatta II, 2021. This towel is a perfect blend of art, culture, and luxury, making it a must-have accessory for those who appreciate the finer things in life. In this painting, Kehinde Wiley captures Issa Diatta in a posture reminiscent of an 18th-century general overlooking a successful maneuver on the battlefield. With his chin held high and a sheathed sword in his left hand, Diatta exudes a timeless strength and confidence. However, his modern attire—a deep blue sweatshirt, a low-hanging gold chain, and purple and black wristbands—creates a striking contrast, making him a man out of time. The background features the intricate details of House of Hackney's non-conformist take on a traditional floral design, “Artemis.” Inspired by William Morris's work and Diana Vreeland's iconic 'Garden in Hell' room, this painterly print depicts Victo......

Immerse yourself in the intersection of art and luxury with our exclusive beach towel featuring the captivating background of Kehinde Wiley's Portrait of Kaysy J. Gotay II, 2022. More than just an accessory, it's a powerful statement piece that reflects Wiley's exploration of race and identity in a post-colonial age. Kehinde Wiley's painting employs the heroic visual vocabulary of European portraiture to depict a contemporary Black woman.

Viewed from below in a three-quarter view, she gazes confidently at the viewer, embodying strength and self-assurance. The lavish floral background in the painting draws upon an Indian design reproduced by Jean-Antoine Fraisse in his 1735 "Book of Chinese Designs taken from the originals of Persia, of the Indies, of China and of Japan." This intricate pattern creates stark visual and cultural juxt......

This hardcover notebook features Kehinde Wiley’s 2013 painting Saint John the Baptist in the Wilderness, reimagined from Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio’s 1605 painting of the same name. Both the pose of Wiley’s model, as well as the background pattern (William Morris) were both sourced from the artistic traditions of Jamaica's former colonizer. Jamaica's brutal history of colonization, slavery, and forced migrations positions it as a perfect subject matter for Wiley’s methodical, role-reversing portraiture oeuvre.

This limited edition silk robe features Kehinde Wiley’s 2015 painting Simeon the God Receiver, reimagined from the icon that is based on the story of Saint Simeon. According to tradition, he died at the great age of 360 after receiving the infant Christ in the Temple of Jerusalem. Wiley’s model, Eric Murphy, is covered in tattoos from head to toe – including a rosary, a portrait of his son, and the Rolling Stones magazine logo on his stomach. Murphy’s overt appearance immediately renders the thematic injustices of omission within the historical practice of western portraiture to its viewer. In his sacred stance, Murphy is accompanied by a flat, fluorescent botanical background, with plant tendrils entwining around his legs. 100% silk with a satin finish 19mm.
